You can't assign keyboard shortcuts to snippets in exactly the same way 
as you can in Homesite, but you can do something that is potentially 
much more powerful.

For each snippet you can assign a set trigger trigger characters such as 
"cff" for a snippet that inserts a cffunction block. When you type that 
trigger followed by ctrl+i it will insert the snippet and prompt you for 
any custom snippet variables in the snippet. You can configure a 
different shortcut to use instead of ctrl+i.

The reason that this is much more powerful is that it allows you to have 
an infinite number of snippets assigned to shortcuts without having to 
sacrifice existing keyboard shortcuts. It does require typing an extra 
character or two, so your mileage may vary.
